How to Go to Her Place Smoothly, Even If You Just Met

“Cabbing
works pretty well here, but it is not sustainable in my life right now.
The night rates are astronomical and as a struggling college student
who tries to go out and pull almost every night, I'd soon be living in
the streets if I was cabbing every other night back.

So what I really need is a way to go back to HER place. I tried your
"got any food at your place?" a few times and while it works with more
socially attuned girls, most of the people my age(19) really aren't at
that level and just see that as you trying to get free food.

I was wondering if you had any ways to suggest to her that you're going
back to her place that while still subtle, will let a not so socially
savvy girl know exactly what you are saying without coming out and
saying it directly.”

That's a great point from him on one of the downsides of the "got
any food" question, and a good question. How do you go to her place?

And how do you do it... smoothly?

This article's here to answer that.

There's an interesting interplay between give and take, and it's no
more apparent than it is when you're looking to take that cute new girl
you've just met (or the one you've been courting forever and finally got out on a date and now
it's time to move things forward) back to your place or go to her place.

The general rule is this: more
often than not, people are open to being given things, but closed to
having things taken away.

This openness occurs at an emotional gut reaction. For instance,
imagine you're sitting at a bar, and two girls walk up to you.

The first one says, "Can I buy you a drink?"

And the second one says, "Would you like to buy me a drink?"

If you're like most men, the first girl is going to give you a bit
of a warm and fuzzy feeling. "Ah!"
you think, "This seems like a great
girl. Clearly, she also has good taste!" You're probably going
to accept, but even if you reject, you'll be very nice about it and be
thinking about what a cool girl she is later.

Meanwhile, the second girl is
going to put you on alert, make you feel cautious, and raise your
skepticism alarms. She wants
something from you. What else
might she want? You're a lot more likely to say "no" to her than you
are to the first, and in a colder, more dismissive way, and you're also
a lot more likely to retain reservations even if you say "yes."

However, there is one
benefit the girl acquires by putting you on the spot in example #2 and
asking you to buy her the drink: once you accept, you're basically following
her lead. She's in control, she's calling the shots, and
while you're skeptical, you're also now feeling like you need to follow
her.

In this way, putting someone on the spot and asking them for
something serves as a double-edged sword: it greatly increases the
chances they say "no," but it also increases your ability later on to
translate that initial "yes" into further "yes"es in due time.

How Girls Feel About the Various
Kinds of Pull

When you're pulling women home, they tend to have various different
reactions to the various kinds of pulls you may use. That's
because they have various:

Degrees of liking and trusting you

Degrees of being open to sex in general

Degrees of being open to sex with you

Degrees of seeing you as someone giving or someone taking

Obviously, the more she likes you,
trusts you, is open to sex, is open to sex with you, and sees you as someone
bringing value to her life, the more likely she is to say "yes."

There is an exception - some women will "yes" more often to going
home quickly with men they find attractive but see as value takers
rather than value givers. For these particular women, that can be
because if the man is doing everything else right AND he's a giver of
value, she may think he's too good to risk quick intimacy on, and it's
better to take things slowly and cautiously in hopes of getting a long-term relationship with him.
Meanwhile, the value taker who's
otherwise attractive isn't a relationship candidate, and if she finds
him sexy she may just decide, "Screw it, let's just do this and then I
never see him again."

(Usually you'll want to keep things on the side of value giver.
However, if you become a very
sexy and very attractive man,
making yourself appear like a value taker can be an interesting angle
to experiment with - you'll get some markedly different results with
women, and not necessarily always bad, especially if you struggle with
getting classed as a boyfriend candidate too easily)

Assuming a girl likes you, trusts you, is somewhat open to sex, and
is somewhat open to sex with you
(but hasn't yet made up her mind whether she wants this or not), and
you haven't kissed her or
told her you want her or done anything else knuckleheaded like that to
pull the rug out from under yourself, here's how she'll normally react
to the different ways you can invite her home to your place,
or invite yourself over to go to her
place:

Blunt: "Let's get out of here,"
or, "Let's go to my place." This one works best with women
who've already logically decided they're going to sleep with you; in
other words, a very small minority of the women you will
ever meet or date (and vanishingly
few under the age of 35). For the remainder, it produces either:

Immediate panic, trying to determine the implications of
what's about to happen, or

Momentary excitement at what is to come, swiftly followed by
immediate panic, trying to determine the implications of what's about
to happen.

For that reason, I advise you to skip inviting girls home bluntly
and instead go about it a tad more eloquently.

Casual: "I don't know what else
you've got going on today, but what say we go watch a movie?"
This one's a favorite of mine for daytime dates (e.g., weekend
lunches). It's very low pressure, and it shows you're considering her
schedule and not simply trying to steamroll her or push her into going
with you. This invitation gets you some of the highest percentages of
"yes"es you'll get, because the girl's feeling is typically, "Do I like
spending time with him, and do I want to spend more time with him?" and
if the answer is "yes," you'll usually get a "yes." Thus, the question of sex doesn't even
enter into the equation, and you can tackle that one later when
you're alone together in an environment more conducive to intimacy.

Invitational: "Want to go to an
after party?" "Why don't we go grab a nightcap and call it a night?"
This is another high percentage one, because you're offering value, and
when that's coming from a calm, smooth, sexy
man, a large portion of women will leap at the chance to
accept a value offering from a guy like that. Like the casual invite,
this one is largely platonic; there are some hints of sex in it, but
that only serves to make her more curious.

Forcing a Decision: "I'm away
half the time on travel, and I'm terrible with the phone. I don't do
dates... I just don't have time. If we part ways now, we're not going
to meet again. But if you like me, and I like you, we can keep spending
time together right now, and
maybe tomorrow will never come. Do you like me? Would you like to keep
spending time with me? Would you like to come with me? Then let's go."
This one is one you'll use when you're getting a "no, but let's meet
later / no, but here's my phone number." If you haven't had the
pleasure of running into these much yet, this is a polite refusal, and
you will almost never see the
girl again. So there's typically no harm in refusing this refusal, and
proposing that the girl come with you if she really likes you because
it's her only chance. If she does
like you, she may relent and say "yes." If she doesn't, she'll still
say "no," and that's that.

Asking to Go to Her Place:
I'll cover ways of doing this below, but I want to note two things
about it:

It always combines with one of the pulls above, and

It gives girls an added pressure of wondering, "Should I allow
this guy back to my home?"

Many women are uncomfortable bringing men back to their places
(because of fear of stalkers, or fear of social repercussions), which
is why you'll get that last one. However, if you've done a good job of making her
feel comfortable with you and/or excited about you, this isn't
an insurmountable hurdle.

Those are your options for inviting a girl somewhere alone with you.

There's another option, for
getting girls somewhere you can take them to bed without a bed,
of course: simply take their hands and lead them somewhere (a bathroom,
a closet, a bench or alleyway or staircase outside).

Most of the time though, you'll be inviting - either her to come to
your place, or yourself to go to her place.

Let's look at how you pull off that latter.

Let's say going back to your place isn't a viable option. Whether
that's because your place is too far away, or you've got roommates,
you're traveling and you don't even have
a place, or you're young and "your place" really means "your parents'
place;" it's all the same - you don't
want to, or even can't, bring
her back to yours.

How do you go to her place instead?

As it were, you've got a couple of options, and each of them falls
in one of the first four categories we covered above under standard
types of pulls.

But there's one thing you must do BEFORE you propose any of these.

Before You Ask to Go to Her
Place...

... you must set the logistics up to do this!

Casually ask her, "What part of town do you live in?"

Once she answers then say, "Cool. You got roommates?"

Then, move on in the conversation. You'll come back to use this
information later.

Go to Her Place with a Blunt Pull

When you're ready to pull, if you want to try blunt, you can use one
of these:

Got any food at your place?

How about we just head to your place and chill?

You can often preface this with, "Your place is a lot closer than
mine," thus assuming the sale
that the two of you are going to leave together (e.g., the implication
is, you wouldn't say this unless it was already decided that the two of
you are definitely leaving together).

That'd look like this:

You:
How about we get out of here... your place is a lot closer than mine.
How about we just head to your place and chill and unwind from the
night's activities? We can hang and talk a bit more.

Yes, you are imposing a bit.
Any time you're asking to go to her place, you're going to be imposing.
But it's okay - if she likes you, she'll say "yes," assuming you're
smooth and natural enough about things.

Go to Her Place with a Casual
Pull

A casual pull combined with going back to her place will look like
one of these:

I don't know what you've got going on the rest of today, but
what say we head to your pad and kick back a while longer?

I don't know if you're super busy today or what, but why don't
we go to your place and throw on a movie and hang?

Again, you can preface this with, "Your place is a lot closer than
mine," or, "Your place is going to be a lot less crowded than mine."

The full pull looks like this:

You:
I don't know what the rest of your schedule's like, but if we're having
fun and you're not totally booked, what say we head to yours to hang
some more and throw on a flick? We can probably chat more easily there
than at mine with a bunch of wild roommates running around going ape.

Go to Her Place with an
Invitational Pull

An
invitational pull is a little harder to do, because you've got to
offer some sort of value and you don't really know what she has at her
place - if you propose doing something she doesn't have (e.g., a
nightcap when she doesn't have alcohol at home), she may reject the notion even if she likes you because she
realizes she doesn't have the thing you're asking to do and thus writes
the idea off as unfeasible.

There's nothing worse than losing a girl because of something as
silly as proposing something she can't do when a different proposal
would've worked just fine.

So, often with invitational, it's
better to propose grabbing something at a store or restaurant nearby,
and taking it back to her place.

Like so:

Let's grab a nightcap and call it a night. I'll buy the alcohol,
there's a little shop nearby. We can kick back for a few minutes at
your place; yours is closer.

What say we get a few slices of pizza to go? We can pick them up
next door and take them to your place since yours is quieter so we can
eat and talk in peace.

I incorporated the rationale for why
you want to go to her place (and not yours) in the two examples above,
so I won't restate. Those two are both fine as-is.

Go to Her Place by Forcing a
Decision

You'll almost never use
this one, simply because it's such an odd combination of things you
won't usually do, unless you're in an unusual circumstance (e.g.,
you're traveling without a hotel room, and don't have the money to
spring for a hotel or you're challenging yourself not to sleep alone
that night and won't allow
yourself to get a room in a hotel).

These look like this (assume you've already tried another pull and
she's resisted or said "no" or offered you her number or a date later
instead):

Well, I'm traveling. I'm not here very long, and I'm doing a
million things while I'm in town. So this is really our one chance to
keep spending time together. If you like me and I like you, we should
do it. I don't bite. I'm not going to start a wild rave at your pad and
invite half the city over or anything. I just like you, I want to hang
with you, and I like talking with you. Do you want to keep spending
time with me? [she responds] Okay good; let's go. [take her hand and
lead] Where are we going? [let her point the way; then, you lead]

I work 80 hours a week and I don't do dates. The only way I meet
someone new is if we hit it off and we decide we really dig each other
and we want to spend our time together. If we don't want to do that it
doesn't work, we part ways, and we never see each other again. But if
we do want to do that, then
why wouldn't we just keep hanging out? I'd like to keep hanging out
with you. I think you're a cool girl, you're a lot of fun, and I really
like talking to you. Do you like me? Can we keep hanging out? [let her
respond] Wonderful! Yay! Then let's get going; the night awaits us. You
lead the way.

Not everyone is going to want to use this style - it's ballsy, direct, and it has a high
percentage chance of getting you shot down then and there. But
when it works - and it does work, at least some of the
time - you've essentially taken a girl you were probably never going to
see again, and very likely just turned her into a girl you're about to
make love to.

Go to Her Place Using a Barrier

There's one other way of doing this, too, that we didn't mention
above; that's using a barrier.

We discussed barriers in greater detail in the article on being a challenge to women; a
barrier is something you use to get a woman contributing and
communicate to her what she needs to do, figure out, or propose if she
wants to move things forward.

A barrier with going back to her place looks like this:

You know, I'd really like to go somewhere that the two of us can
chill without all this extra noise and all these people, but my place
is super far away.

Normally I'd invite you to my place for a nightcap so we can
spend more time together and talk more, but my roommates are partying
there tonight and we won't have any privacy.

If the girl is REALLY not very socially attuned, she may miss
the hint entirely (but you can always suggest, "Hey, what about YOUR
place?" - only if she's really
clueless, though)

This one's kind of obvious what you're doing, and some girls may
even tease you over it or laugh about it. Some girls think it's cute
though, and find it more fun and more respectful than other, more
imposing, ways of getting back to theirs

You'll find that normally, this works best with a girl who really
likes you, and whom you either have a playful dynamic with already (so
she continues to play along), or she's a little inexperienced and won't
roll her eyes and go, "Oh God, that's SO obvious what he's trying to
do. Couldn't he have been a little more subtle or a little more direct?"

Parting Thoughts

You're always going to be imposing somewhat when you're inviting
yourself back to a girl's place. It goes with the territory, and you'll
simply need to get more comfortable with imposing on people.

Is it wrong to impose on
people? Some people would prefer to never impose on others, and never
have others impose on them. But certain situations in life simply don't
get satisfactorily resolved without someone being a little imposing...
sometimes there just isn't a better solution. The best thing you can do in these
situations is to couch an imposition in enough explanation that she
understands why you're
imposing, and then go on to give her great emotions and a fantastic
experience to say thank you
for putting a little faith in me.

This is one of those things that's going to be outside the ordinary
for most folks, and you'll just have to break past the wall that's
standing between what you do now and what you're doing if you're doing
this if you want to learn how to use these techniques.

You don't have to; there
are plenty of other ways to get a girl alone besides
inviting yourself over to her place.

However, this is just another tool to add to your toolbox. And if
you'd like to have the flexibility of being able to go to girls'
places, instead of simply bringing them to yours or taking advantage of
impromptu logistics (a bathroom, the backseat of your car, etc.), this
one may be well worth learning and getting down.

Comments

Hey chase how does asking a girl if she wants to chill, or the nights to young to be over let's chill sound to a girl you just meet and had very little Convo with?

Thanks for the reply on my last comment but I don't think I saw a response for being a sexy friend? What I asked was basically what if you know girls from school or work? You say hi and bye to them and have convos here and there. Like your not close with them so you give them no value but you talk to them only when you see them. I can't make moves on some girls because my logistics aren't too good right now so I just keep it to hi,byes, and small talk, while being sexy and flirting. Tell me how being a sexy friend or sexy acquaintance sounds? Should I still be friendly to them or just be kinda cold and not engage with them at all until I want to strike so I won't provide value?

On the store thing... Man you have such a good memory to remember I asked that before. You have so much you do but you remember answering that while I totally forgot. My bad on my part. One thing I wanted to know about pick up in stores is if it's good to do it if you work at the store. Does that matter?

Two last quick questions. How do you pick up a girl that has her child with her?
How do you pick up with your friends are with you? I feel so much pressure to succeed and not get played in front of them. Tell me how can I get the pressure off and change my mentality? Thanks Chase!!!

If you’ve just met and haven’t talked much, I’d stay away from asking her to chill (save that for girls you’re already very comfortable and familiar with) and instead use one of the more solid proposals like grab a nightcap, cook some food together, or head to an after party.

Sexy friend – you’re okay so long as you stay away from too much deep diving and don’t over-invest your time or energy in them. Keep things light, flirty, and fun, and don’t give the girl any indication you’re about to make a move (so that she won’t get excited, then feel let down when nothing happens and go into auto-rejection and start treating you coldly). It’s fun to flirt, and nice to have some girls around who you always flirt with and never do anything with or plan to… see Moneypenny in the James Bond movies.

Stores – yeah, don’t worry about it. I’d be cautious about picking up at work – only go for it if you can tell the girl is VERY into you. Otherwise, you’re risking your paycheck, and that’s probably not worth it. You could always head over to other grocery stores (when you’re not in uniform, obviously!) and build up some experience there, and once you know what you’re doing in a store you can more confidently do some here and there in your own store.

Girls with children, treat it the same as a group – a little attention to the other person (a quick smile and a “Cute kid!”), but then back to talking to the girl. Friends… try and get excited about how impressive you’ll look to your buddies. If they don’t normally approach, even you walking up to a girl and getting shot down is going to be epically awesome to them – you’ll look like a hero.

1) What is your opinion about inviting women to your place on a first date where you prepare a meal and a movie?

I am assuming a girl you met online or day-game may not be as receptive as compared to a girl you met in a bar and spent a lot of time with?

2) There is a lot of advice I have heard coaches saying tell the girls about your intent and show sexual interest, calling her sexy etc and that she is turning the guy on?
Would you verbally tell a girl that she is turning you on during the date?
Or would that make you lose the power/ frame?

3) Would you verbally ever tell a girl you want to make love to her? (some people say it shows confidence)

4) Quite often in the pick up community I hear the analogies such as if Brad Pitt invited her to his home on the first date/ or if Brad Pitt said that to her etc, would she refuse etc? The point they are trying to make is when the girl is not interested in the guy to begin with she does'nt allow him to get away with what she would allow Brad Pitt to get away with.

You can set this up as a first date with any girl who’s very receptive to you and very comfortable with you. Gauge based on how she is with you, rather than the venue you met her in.

Telling girls they’re sexy / turning you on / you want to make love to them / etc.: this very much depends on your style and how you come across with women. The less like a guy she’d want to keep around long-term you seem, the more effective it is; the more you seem like a guy she’d want to keep around long-term, the more likely it is to not go as well. If you’re not sure where you fall, test it out, and see what kinds of results it nets you.

And re: Brad Pitt, my answer is sure, plenty of women would refuse. But many others would say “yes,” and it doesn’t necessarily have anything to do with whether she likes him or not. Women who claim to dislike certain actors or musicians still sleep with them all the time anyway. Fame is a very big attraction switch that overrides a lot of logically-chosen preferences. I’d say those guys you’re listening to are making the point wrong; lots of women who don’t like Brad Pitt will sleep with him anyway if they find themselves with an opportunity to. Likewise, the best odds you’ll have of sleeping with women quickly are women who don’t really like YOU that much, too. “Liking” is far more conducive to women taking things slow with men and trying to draw them out so as to get a commitment out of them than it is to quick, speedy, throwaway sex.

Hey Chase
Nice advice. I understand that it is possible to close with a girl in places other than your or her place but in the occasions when you're going to her place, a few things came to my mind about making it lead to sex. I mean its her kingdom, her place...its not like I could throw some clothes on a chair to keep her from sitting away from me. At her place how do you get the girl to get intimate with you. I'm not sure if there is a post on this specifically talking about her own place. But I can imagine more conservative girls trying to sit far from you or trying to hang out with you because they want to make you boyfriend material.
Actually, is the fact that they let you come to their place a signal that they do in fact want to have sex? I guess I kinda answered my own question...but regardless...how will you lead it. I remember the stuff about getting her a glass of water etc...

One other thing. Recently a girl in my social circle and I have been getting closer. We have all kinds of sexual tension going on between us...especially when we hug. Our hugs are wayyy longer than usual and we're squeezing each other pretty tight. With her I do these type of hugs where I have my arms around her back instead of her waist or hips and my chin rests on her head because she's shorter than me. (i love hugging short girls :D) i been wanting to kiss her forehead or something just to make the extended hugs less weird but I can't bring myself to do it (or really kiss at all) my mind starts thinking about the situation more and I just won't give in to the moment. Do you have any tips on this?
And I know kissing lets girls know that they have you but is it the same for kissing on the forehead?
Me and her are just friends with a lot of sexual tension and I don't want her getting some idea that I'm into her and want her as a girlfriend. I'd love to tap that though.

True, you can’t prepare her place to be more conducive to seduction, but you can still give her commands.

If she sits far away, you tell her to stop being weird and come sit closer.

If she’s trying to just hang out with you, tell her you want to watch a movie and lead her to her room and throw her in bed and watch it with her there.

Women coming to your place is not necessarily a signal they definitely want sex. More, it’s a signal that they’re open to it. But much of the time they still haven’t made up their minds yet – they just haven’t rejected it (in which case, they’ll refuse to come to your place / take you to theirs). You still need to convince them to have sex (by touching, kissing, being sexually arousing, etc.).

Kissing not on the mouth is okay before you’re alone, because it’s ambiguous. The girl doesn’t know if it means you want to sleep with her, or if you’re treating her like a kid sister. But you don’t kiss your kid sister on the mouth, which is why that one’s off limits.

If you’re trying to kiss her on the forehead but psyching yourself out, make it the very first thing you’re going to do – as you go in for the hug, kiss her on the forehead, then hug. When you do something right away, you have momentum behind you and it’s usually a LOT easier to do.

That makes sense to kiss her first. I will try that from now on.
Oh, maybe i made a mistake in my question...I mean: Is that fact that she is letting you into HER place indicate that she wants to have sex? Its proably the same answer but just making sure.

That's a very broad question. My answer is, it's the same as relationships everywhere else, except that things may be a little more difficult logistically (since you may both still be living with parents / may or may not have your own transportation) and emotionally (since it's new for both of you and you're likely not going to be able to control, direct, or even understand your emotions all that well yet).

Aside from that, we have a handful of younger guys on the forums who are pretty talented and experienced, and I'd expect they can give you better answers than I can, as they've actually lived it and done it (me, when I was in high school, relationships were still a pipe dream).

Hey Chase,
I read your article on how to be a sexy man and the one on facial hairstyles and a couple others. In one you say you fixed your fashion sense and the clothes you wear. Was wondering if you could share some insight on that.
